100% Lavender Flower HERBAL TEA from a private non-certified organic farm.Several months ago a customer of our store offered us a trial of her lavender. After sampling, we wanted to source this product direct from the grower instead of the commercial importer when possible. It’s from a private Connecticut farm, about 3000 bushes in 6 gardens approx 10 years old with large (2 foot) root systems. So established and wild-like, that she neither waters nor uses any chemicals. It is non-certified organic. We have a couple pounds left, it's been popular and we'll try to get more in June. We will substitute our former certified organic flower if unavailable.
